taylor17 Unregistered guest | I was looking on ebay when I found a Eclipse SW7104DVc T2 10 inch sub. It is brand new and they are only wanting $139. The sub's are 400 watt's rms and I have the rockford p8002 amp that put's out 800 watts at 4 ohms, would my amp work with the sub's? |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Is this a good deal on the sub, I know the Eclipse T's are grate subs. |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Also are they the same eclipse t everyone likes. With 2 of the 10's and 400 watt's to each would I be compareing to an Jl 12w7 or not. |

|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | I checked and it said that they are 400 watts rms and 800 peak. Any then wouldn't that make it a better deal if they where 900 watt's insted of 400 watt's. I am going to check to look agen but I am almost positive that it said 400 watt's, but they could have mest up on the rating's. |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Ya I double checked and they are 400 watts rms and 800 max, they don't say anything about being a 9100 or anything like that. It also says that it is a T2 but it has an aluminum cone, What's up with that, I don't really know anything about Eclipse subs so any input would be grat, like what there best "10" subs are? |

Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 267 Registered: Aug-04 | taylor it all depends on your price range and what you want the 9110 ti is gonna run like 300 on ebay or a website, it will be a better sub but it will also require a bigger amp and you may need to upgrade your charging system |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Does anyone know a good website that has Eclipse subs, the only web I can find is ebay. I don't plan on spinding more than 140 on each sub, I found an eclipse aluminum on ebay for $112 but it is brand new and I like my stuff brand new. So if any Know's of a pare of eclipse 10's for that price range, or any other brand for that matter I would appreatiate it. Also I would really like to keep my amp, it is the rockford p8002, it is still brand new so I would like to use it a little longer. It put's out 800 watt's times 1 at 4 ohm's. |

Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 274 Registered: Aug-04 | just get 1 eclipse ti 12 for 300 off ebay it will sound great but that kind of destroys the whole keep the amp part |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Sory I would like to go with a 12 but it wouldn't fit. Has to go under the back seat of an chevy extended cab. The eclipse aluminum's are 400 watt's each, perfict for my amp, I just don't know any thing about them. |

Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 279 Registered: Aug-04 | aluminums are good subs i know someone with 2 10 alum. in a chevy truck -- they sound fair, but make sure you invest in a good box - he didnt and his sound def. pays the price i dont know if you guys have similar places but we have a market place called traders village where you can get a box for like 20 bucks lol and its like russian roulette with what you get (except its 5 bullets in the chambers instead of one lol) |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Ya I live about an hour a way from Fort Worth, and I have been thinking of going and seeing what they got, but I just don't trust places like that. Is there a special Eclipse aluminum I should look for or stay away frum. Thank's for the help. Also this will be replacing 2 rockford hx2's so if they won't be that much better let me know. |

Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 282 Registered: Aug-04 | taylor where do you live? - One of my buddies runs a stereo store that sells eclipse stuff, they are fair ly priced but they do great installs the store is in arlington and the aluminums will beat the hx2s look on eclipse-web.com and make sure you are gettin the correct aluminums so they dont bait and switch you |
|
Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 283 Registered: Aug-04 | as far as traders village you are smart to stay away but its still fun to go |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | I live about 20 minutes west of Cleburne. Any chance your bud could give me a discount:-) |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | And as far as the box, I was going to use the same box I have now. I had it custom built not sure but I think it has somthing like 2 cubic feet per sub. I would hate to have to get a new box this one cost almost $200. |
|
Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 284 Registered: Aug-04 | The box should still be good the aluminums can use a lot of air space, the more the better we should hit up traders village some weekend, I was going to go up there with one of my buddies soon and sell off a bunch of our old equipment so it stops taking up our whole garage |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Ya that would be cool. What kind of stuff you thinking of selling. |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | One of my bud's likes to go up there, but he likes the crap like Legacy. So I never been. |

Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 285 Registered: Aug-04 | I have a 15" kicker 2 audiobahn 12's 1 eclipse ti 12" an old eclipse head unit a 10 w6 in a prowedge an mtx amp and 2 12" vmax's im selling my bp 1200.1 on ebay right now there is some other stuff too thats not in the best of condition, but my neighbor took 4 comp vr 10's in a truck box up there and sold them in the parking lot for 350 cash, so i figured what the hell ps the kicker 15 and audiobahns are my buddies not mine so no snide comments lol |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Actually I was wondering what kind of audiobahn's and how much you plan on selling the audiobahn's and the eclipse for. |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Also what kind of brand's do they have up there. I was under the impression that it was all crap brands like legacy and sony y |
|
Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 288 Registered: Aug-04 | the audiobahns sound actually ok its 2 12's in a sealed box if i recall they are the AW122T and they take about 400 watts each they are by no means the best subs though, anything over 100 or 120 for the combo im guessing he would take the eclipse is an expensive sub, im not sure if i want to sell it or try to figure out something with it, i change my mind on my system like 20 times a week |
|
Silver Member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 289 Registered: Aug-04 | they have everything up there from A-Z from crap that no one has ever heard of to jl to stolen alpine in dash LCD's etc there is a bunch of crap like legacy but also some nicer brands too |
|
taylor17 Unregistered guest | Sweet! Just tell me wen you will be up there selling that stuff and I will try to go and check it out. I could probubly get one of my bud's to buy that audiobahn, if it has the name audiobahn on it and doesn't cost an arm or an leg, he wants it. |

Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 2887 Registered: May-04 | taylor, the newer Eclipse T1s and T2s are what replaced the 8100 series Eclipse Aluminums. I haven't heard the new ones yet, but if they're anything like the 8100s they're great. The 8100 series was awesome, great SQ and SPL. Work well in sealed or ported enclosures, underrated as well. |
